Real Madrid 3-7 Atletico Madrid Champions Cup Player Ratings 2019- How did Joao Felix play?
The first ever Madrid derby outside Europe produced plenty of goals and a rather stunning result as Diego Simeone’s Atleti thrashed Zinedine Zidane’s Real Madrid 7-3 at the Metlife Stadium in the International Champions Cup.
Here are the player ratings from the Real 3-7 Atleti game from the Spanish press. Joao Felix played well, picking up three stars for his performance, and so did Diego Costa- the latter’s four goals doing enough to earn him three stars despite his second half red card.
Atleti were leading 7-1 at one stage before substitutes Benzema and Javi pulled two goals back for Real. That probably explains the “zero rating” to eight of Real Madrid’s starting XI. The defence and midfield for Los Blancos were pretty ordinary.
Alvaro Morata was perhaps the poorest of Atleti’s starting eleven- the only player to get a single star.
